Electronic Arts Announces Heavyweight Roster in EA MMA

Electronic Arts plans to reveal the roster of fighters that will appear in its upcoming UFC Undisputed challenger, EA MMA, in piecemeal. The weekly announcements kicked off today with the 16 brawlers on the heavyweight roster.

For those of you that are unfamiliar with the international fighters that make up the list, EA was also kind enough to provide a group image of the mixed martial arts experts and a name-that-fighter legend.

EA MMA is being developed by Tiburon for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The game is set to ship on October 19.

Sharkey says: As UFC Undisputed 2009 proved, there's a substantial audience for mixed martial arts games. Given the lackluster performance of Undisputed 2010, it appears EA has the perfect opportunity to one-up the competition and put its own stamp on the genre.
